Of all the QBs we might look into, there's one name you should keep on your radar

No. This team has 3 options right now.

1. Draft a QB and hand them the keys

2. Trade for or sign a franchise QB (Rodgers, Wilson, etc.)

3. Trot out PJ Walker or whatever bum we find, and repeat until 1 or 2 is achieved. 

I think there is only one option.  Draft a tackle.   Roll out Sam one more year and in 2022 make your move for a rookie qb in the draft.  It’s the only viable way to build this team.

PJ is too much of a gunslinger to lead your to a #1 pick like Clausen.  You would have weeks where it worked out.  What we need to do is just bring Clausen out of retirement.   I mean if you want to tank for #1 you need to get it.  PJ end up giving you the 5 pick or something we draft McCaffrey again or some poo. 

Two words.

There's very few active, non-retread NFL QBs that I'd be game for acquiring to potentially start.  I fully expect us to draft Willis, Corral, Pickett, Howell, Ridder or Strong.  

Then we target a "starter if the rookie isn't ready" type that's not Darnold (Could still be Darnold)

There's a nice and ugly list of potential guys that are realistic (Rogers and Wilson aren't coming here):

Mariota (2022 FA, Retread, Pass)

Trubiski (2022 FA, Retread, Pass)

Nick Foles (2022 FA, Retread X3, Pass)

Jameis Winston (2022 FA, meh)

CJ Beathard (Contracted 2022, maybe)

Andy Dalton (No, Hard Pass)

Drew Lock (Contracted 2022, maybe, but retread like Darnold)

Kirk Cousins (If they don't land a playoff win, I could see them getting anxious) 

Tua Tag (Unproven, injury prone and a bit bland)

I swear to god half of your must have exes with restraining orders out against you. 

He isn't returning but it isn't any worse than the Sam Darnold homers that still think he's going to magically turn into a franchise qb after being outperformed by Daniel Jones.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
